Bridges Burned

I didn't swear vengeance on the Severino Family after Ellie's death. I was only a child after all.I didn't swear vengeance when my father, a coward who wasn't man enough to seek justice for her, drank himself into a divorce.Going after them would be a death sentence.I chose to live my life in the shadows, seeking revenge for others.That was until I ran into the very man that took Ellie's life.I can still smell the smoke clinging to my skin from all the bridges I burned because of that man.Walking away was no longer an option.Killing him would be easy, but taking the woman that was promised to him seemed like a better wager.Exacting retribution through her was the gamble I made.Surviving her now seems impossible.
